RETHINKING SYSTEMS IN INFORMATION SYSTEMS (SYSTEMATICALLY)

This paper argues that the information systems (IS) field needs to widen its focus in three directions: from the systems development life cycle to the full systems life cycle, from information systems to business systems, and, most fundamentally, from Type I information work (clerical) to Type II information work (the work of line managers, staff managers, and professionals). This expanded vision will require new research and teaching methods. Most fundamentally, we need to embrace exploratory descriptive research in order to understand these areas before we can do effective theory-based empirical research

Longitudinal Studies in Information Systems Research: Practices, Findings, and Gaps

The longitudinal research approach has the potential to provide rich data about the information systems life cycle and organizational and societal shifts due to information technology implementation and adoption. With this research methodology, we can discern changes in user behaviors and attitudes over time. Despite the promise of the longitudinal research approach, it has not been widely used in information systems research in the past. The aim of the current study is to inventory longitudinal research studies published during the past twenty years (1995-2015) and to provide a status report of this research method in the information systems field. The study will also identify gaps in longitudinal research in the information systems field and make recommendations to information systems researchers considering the adoption of longitudinal research methodologies in their work

RANCANG BANGUN COMPANY PROFILE GABUNGAN PERUSAHAAN KONSTRUKSI NASIONAL INDONESIA (GAPEKSINDO) BERBASIS WEB

Research on Web-based Company Profile Design of the Association of Indonesian Construction Companies (GAPEKSINDO) is a research to make it easier for people to obtain complete and up-to-date information because information is considered very important in decision making and in achieving goals. In addition to obtaining complete and up-to-date information, the website can also send and publish information to the wider community online. The system development method used in this research is the System Development Life Cycle (SDLC) method, or better known as the system development life cycle in system engineering and software engineering, is the process of making and changing systems and the models and methodologies used to develop these systems. The research results are expected that this system can publish its activities for more up-to-date information so that the public can find out about the activities that have been carried out, the ease of information about GAPEKSINDO

08491 Executive Summary -- Theoretical Foundations of Practical Information Security

Designing, building, and operating secure information processing systems is a complex task, and the only scientific way to address the diverse challenges arising throughout the life-cycle of security criticial systems is to consolidate and increase the knowledge of the theoretical foundations of practical security problems. To this aim, the mutual exchange of ideas across individual security research communities can be extraordinary beneficial. Accordingly, the motivation of this Dagstuhl seminar was the integration of different research areas with the common goal of providing an integral theoretical basis that is needed for the design of secure information processing systems

eBank UK: linking research data, scholarly communication and learning

This paper includes an overview of the changing landscape of scholarly communication and describes outcomes from the innovative eBank UK project, which seeks to build links from e-research through to e-learning. As introduction, the scholarly knowledge cycle is described and the role of digital repositories and aggregator services in linking data-sets from Grid-enabled projects to e-prints through to peer-reviewed articles as resources in portals and Learning Management Systems, are assessed. The development outcomes from the eBank UK project are presented including the distributed information architecture, requirements for common ontologies, data models, metadata schema, open linking technologies, provenance and workflows. Some emerging challenges for the future are presented in conclusion
